Hi, fedi! I'm crawling out of my hermit hole to share my new app, TumblBee, with you all 🐝

lilacpixel.itch.io/tumblbee

TumblBee is a pay-what-you-want cross-platform app for exporting your original #Tumblr posts (and pages) to Markdown or HTML. Back up your content and browse it locally, or export to Markdown and drop your posts into your favorite static site generator. (There's even a guide to exporting for Obsidian, if that's your thing.)

If you decide to give it a try, I'd love to hear about it! Boosts are, as always, hugely appreciated 💕 :boost_requested: Thanks so much!

Hey friends,

I’ve been thinking about how I spend my time online, and I’ve realized Tumblr just isn’t doing it for me anymore. So, I’ve been poking around and found Wafrn —and honestly, it feels like finding a cozy new hangout spot where people actually care about each other.

I installed the Wafrn app on my phone last week, and I’ve been messing around with it ever since. The design is so simple that I didn’t have to hunt through menus to figure out how to post or browse, and the folks running it are shockingly quick to respond when you send feedback. Plus, they’re big on privacy—no weird data mining or feeling like your posts disappear into some black hole.

I got so into it that I even wrote a little song about how great it feels to be part of a community that listens. 🎶 It’s nothing fancy, just a fun way to celebrate finding a space where artists, writers, meme-lovers—basically anyone—can be themselves without all the noise.

I’d really love for you to check it out. If you’re tired of the same old platforms and want a place where your voice matters, give Wafrn a try. Click the link, grab the app, and let’s see where this goes together. Who knows—we might just build something awesome. 😊🚀

So, for all of the #django and #wagtail developers out there who would like to see more integration between the existing web and the #fediverse, could you all please take a look at github.com/wagtail/wagtail/dis and give some support for this idea?

Looks like #tumblr is (again!) dialing back its plan to integrate with AP, so maybe this would bring some more interest into other alternatives.

"The announcement also raises questions about what this means for #Tumblr’s integration with the #opensocialweb, known as the fediverse. By migrating its infrastructure to #WordPress, it would have become a #federatedapp. #Mullenweg admits that was one of the arguments for making the move, but hints that it’s no longer a priority.
“…in the meantime, I think if there was a big push to implement fediverse, we would just do it on the Tumblr code base,” he said."

@schizanon
> Tumblr is only going to happen if they implement it in Tumblr itself

At least in the short term. So if you're active on Tumblr and want it to federate over ActivityPub, there's 2 things you can do;

* tell Tumblr it's a priority for you

* join a service hosting Wafr, the fediverse-native answer to Tumblr, post your stuff there, and tell Tumblr you're doing that

i guess i should write a proper intro, tho tbh i don't know if i'll remain active on this platform as i have Too Many.

hi i'm echo! i am from NYC but now i live in berlin with two kitties. i'm a gender nebula trans lesbian with tendencies towards goth anarchism.

i used to work for Tumblr as an engineer with their content moderation tech team from around 2020-2024, so if anyone is curious about stuff from around that era (or before if anyone told me) feel free to ask.

nowadays i work for Mastodon improving their web app and being grateful i don't work for USA tech companies anymore. :BlobCat_Melt:

anyway hello Wafrn!
